“For dozens of Purdue University Calumet students, getting out of the classroom this week meant getting up close and personal with the world of manufacturing, right from the plant floor where products are made.

On Monday and Tuesday, students enrolled in PUC’s Management 101 class toured Tri-State Industries in Hammond to see “lean manufacturing” at work, said their instructor, Sashi C. Sekhar, of the university’s school of management.

“I’d say 98 percent of them have never seen inside a factory before,” she said of the young men and women taking the tour. “This gives them experience in the real world. Tri-State is a wonderful example of tip-top manufacturing, lean manufacturing which is the latest principle in management.”"
